XOOPS provides built in tools for easy user management. These include the ability to search for users by various criteria, send email and private messages to users through a template-based messaging system. In your site, users have the rights that pertain to the group they're assigned to.<br><br>

As to users, they have access to their profile, have some control over most of the information that will be visible to other users, and have also an inbox to receive private messages from the site administrator or from other users. They have besides control over what changes in the site will trigger personal notifications. And depending on the permissions set by the site manager, they can see content and participate in the site's life by uploading content, writing stories or comments, rating content and in general giving their feedback to what they see on the site.<br><br>
